Just What We Needed

If you hadn't noticed, I was a big ball of energy yesterday. I was a multi-tasker...talking, nursing, cuddling, healing, blogging, texting, facebooking and smiling all at the same time. I know this had a lot to do with my adrenaline and the fabulous cocktail of pain meds they had me on :-)

But today was a little different. I traded in my IV and a few other uncomfortable post-op necessities for a fantastic shower and the ability to move around my room without a million cords hanging from me. But with the IV went the great pain meds. Boo! And, poor Mr. Blake had to have an "adjustment" made to his man-parts so he wasn't the happiest camper either :-( I realized at that moment just what we both needed...

So that is how we spent a lot of our day today. Sleeping, nursing and cuddling. But in between those moments, we had a great visit from Auntie Tara...

Auntie Linsey...

And Uncle Joe (who brought me chocolates. YES!)

But now that we have had our fun for the day, it is time to get back to our rest. I have a feeling tomorrow is going to be another action packed day with more visitors and a photo shoot. AND...word on the street is that they might allow siblings in the hospital this week because of the holidays and if that is the case (we have been told several conflicting stories today) then Addie may be able to come up and see Mr. Blake!!!! I would love to see her because I miss her SOOOOO much. But I need to decide if our teeny tiny hospital room is the best place for Addie to meet her brother for the first time. I guess Eric and I will decide that tomorrow.

So...before I go for the night...I just want to say THANK YOU once again for all of your sweet comments. My blog got over 2,000 hits yesterday and I think that is just amazing. Blake has no idea how popular he already is :-)
